A person with myopia cannot see distant objects clearly since the far point for that person is nearer than infinity. Such a person may see clearly up to a distance of a few meters. In this condition, the image of a distant object is formed in front of the retina and not at the retina itself. A concave lens of suitable power will bring the image back on to the retina and thus the defect is corrected.
